I am an enthusiastic biologist with a great interest in wildlife ecology and conservation. I dedicated my BSc and MSc research projects to the study of bats and their conservation. I gained great fieldwork and research experience by studying conservation methods in Portugal and United Kingdom. My passion and commitment with our nature led me to work in multidisciplinary projects focused on the ecosystems services and linear infrastructure networks with ecological solutions. Through these projects I was co-writer of two peer reviewed articles and have submitted another two, one of which I am the first author. They also tested my sense of responsibility and abilities to work in a team and independently. I'm eager to expand my skillset and advance my understanding of bat ecology in wetlands from Mediterranean regions through a PhD.
